About this project

Clean and beautiful, the i+Case for iPhone 4S and 4 looks good in any situation. From the streets to the club and even on the sidelines. The i+Case accents your iPhone 4S and 4 with a sleek aluminium silhouette. 

The i+Case is machined from a single block of aluminum and then goes through an anodization process.  This process increases durability and overall resistance to corrosion.  Laser etched details compliments the modern design. 

This extremely lightweight metal case attaches to your phone with four stainless steel screws, screwdriver included.  Accompanying buttons are micro-machined and designed to seamlessly integrate into the i+Cases's design.  The end result is a cutting edge, aerodynamic case that compliments and blends seamlessly with your iPhone 4 series phone.

FAQ

  • If you've missed the project deadline for KickStarter there's no other way to pledge and receive the product at the reduced price since the projects closed..  We've opened up a spot to purchase these First Edition cases, linked below.

  • We get this question a lot and there's more that plays into signal strength than the case. Apple has upgraded their whole antenna configuration and should help with any potential signal issues over prior versions. >>  http://www.macrumors.com/2011/10/04/iphone-4s-includes-significant-antenna-upgrades/

    However, as I stated there's more to it than just the antenna.  If your device doesn't have a case you can still see signal issues depending on how the device is held, where the towers are, etc.  There are so many variables that effect this. The goal for this case was to reduce an potential signal issues the best we can.  But with any case it's almost impossible to eliminate them because you are physically covering the antenna at it's source.  If you see from this picture >>(http://kck.st/pDJgm2) we've added some EVA lining to help mitigate any potential problems.

  • Most falls typically end up striking the edge of the phone.  It's very difficult to drop a phone parallel to a surface and land flat.  Most screen cracks occur because of a point load on the perimeter.

    You'll even see in the video above that when the screen cracked there was a point load on the edge that caused it.

    thanks
